Side Cut, the first Metropark, is named for the former "side cut" extension of the Miami and Erie Canal that connected the main line of the canal with the city of Maumee. Three of the six original locks from the canal system are preserved.
Side Cut has a 15-passenger tram used for group programs and weekly nature tours in the summer. A Window new Wildlife overlooks a wooded ravine and historic locks.
